The Imperial House of Hader

"Chaos claims the unwary or the incomplete. A true man may flinch away its embrace, if he is stalwart, and he girds his soul with the armor of contempt."

“There is no such thing as a plea of innocence in my court. A plea of innocence is guilty of wasting my time. Guilty.”

Welcome to the Imperial House of Hader.

Good luck.

Things are very seldom what they seem. In my experience, they’re usually a damn sight worse.

Re: The Imperial House of Hader

Evidently I am being forced to make some sort of preliminary speech here, and seeing that this is a scheme Flinn has a part in that means it is undoubtedly an attempt to assassinate me and begin his hostile takeover of TWC - or something to that degree.

But since Akar has put the effort into things I won't let that feel as it's been wasted from my end, so I'll reserve this post here before Flinn grabs the guillotine and fill in later...

Re: The Imperial House of Hader

Honestly, there isn't much to say about my activity in the Curia. I always found the bureaucratic part of it incredibly boring (like that I tried to read the Constitution a million of times and never achieved to get to the second section..) and everybody knows that I coped very badly with the idea of the so called "higher standards" .. however, I do recognize the Curia as an institution to have its merits, mostly as an awarding committee and in general as a tool to recognize worthy members within the community; my undying gratitude goes to all of those who have spent countless hours in running the institution, the more because of my personal dislike of the same. I haven't seen what's known as the "Golden Age" of the Curia, but from what I heard and read, I don't think I would have liked it more than what I liked "my" Curia, heck certainly less.
In any case I was eventually promoted as a Citizen and I put forward myself some worthy members, both for citizenship and for large awards, so I can say that all in all I did my duty here.

A bit of history about me: like many others here I've been attracted to TWC because of the Third Age mod.. funnily enough I just joined the site when the development on the mod died (not on the submods, though) and King Kong (who's, technically speaking, my great-grandfather) left TWC for good. Once joined I spent the first months on the TATW forum, then I found the PH&A forum and a new world opened up to me.. apart from the Staff (which I joined in the Content around mid '14 IIRC), the PH&A has been my main battlefield here at TWC and the place were I think I gave the best of me. Eventually on November '14 the Glorious Finlander put me forward for my Citizenship; my first client was promoted around mid 2015, the last one early 2017.. there are few I missed along the way and a couple are still up to be presented one day or another, but in any case I'm fond of all my patronages and with one of them I had the chance to build up a friendship which is true and solid.
In terms of large awards IIRC I put forward 4 or 5 dudes so far, all of them were totally deserved and I'm sure I'm going to sponsor more in the future.

As for my personal achievements in the Curia, I've been awarded with 3 large awards, the Phalera on end of 2015, the Novus on early 2017 and the Asterix's Loincloth on mid 2019. As I'm here I wish to say thanks to all those great dudes that considered me worthy of being proposed for a Large Award and dared to mix their respected names with my dubious reputation!

My line in the House

P.S. I'm working on my Wiki page, which will be comprehensive of all my deeds here at TWC; once ready or anyways well developed I'll link it on this post!

Re: The Imperial House of Hader

I joined TWC in 2010 because my parents had finally bought me Rome Total War and I wanted to talk about it with people and download mods. I was 12. This was the first time I broke the TOS, but it wouldn't be the last. I spent most of my time in the Thema Devia up until 2019 when I branched out and started posting on the other parts of the forum. That was the same year I won my first of presumably numerous "funniest member of the year" medals. In 2019 I was patronized by my dear friend and wartime consigliere Athelstan, who also got me involved in the Curia as a Censor. I've also recently rejoined content staff, where I am on the Wiki Staff and Art Staff.

Re: The Imperial House of Hader

I've played a crucial part of not really doing anything for years now, and it's a role I play all too well. Another 10 years from now, and another 3 generations of citizens (or 1.5 at this rate) I'll still be around, doing nothing. It's not easy work, but someone has to do it.

^Basically my bio.

Edit:

Also patronised by Finlander in 2012? 2013 maybe. Patronised someone a few years later myself, but let's not think too much about that. Grew up with Finlander, Emperor of Hell, Inarus, Radboud and a few non-Haderians *spits*, mostly good people though. They're all gone now of course.

Re: The Imperial House of Hader

What can I say? After lurking the Third Age forums for a good while, spamming it the best of my abilities, I eventually got in touch with MasterBigAb. The merry good ol' chap that he is, we became natural friends. We spend long time together, a looong time. To the point of mental breakdown, we did silly stuff together. During this time we got to befriend with other merry fellows, Legio/Chloe to name a few. I never knew exactly why, but my guessing is that the magical effect of binge drinking all the beer in Bavarian region did play a role in MBA offering to patronise me in the first place. I didn't expect my contributions to be quite there yet, but we sent the application for citizenship. I passed. Then again some influential insiders *cough* Legio *cough* held the keys to the backdoor of Curia. That's how I joined.

As I novice citizen of the forum, I did apply for a number of terms in Curial position and helped to keep the citizen standard on legendary difficulty. Despite the wording used here, I never thought to be roleplaying the forums but genuely thought that serving the CdeC was something I did good. Well as you know, the institution fell and was demolished on my watch, but I did good, wasn't my fault I swear. After the Curial reform, I continued helping the citizenship review process. This I think have been my only contribution in Curia. I have not taken other positions here.

I've got to known wonderful people on the forums. One of the best contribution that I did for the site has been putting forward a few names for citizenship. I'm very glad to see friends like Mhaedros and Flinn still are active on the forums, continue doing the good deeds they always have.
